\u00a0\u00a0 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Arctic air that has enveloped the Northern Plains for a week and half is on its way out, with a warm-up in store for the rest of the week.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Temperatures Monday morning in the Dakotas were in the single digits and teens below zero – with wind chills dropping into the minus 20s.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 But National Weather Service meteorologist Nathan Heinert (HY’-nurt) says the jet stream will be moving to the north and pushing the Arctic air out, allowing some warmer weather in. The forecast calls for highs Tuesday from the teens to the mid-30s in North Dakota, and from the 20s to the lower 40s in South Dakota.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Heinert says the balmier weather also could bring strong winds as well as a mix of precipitation. Major storms are unlikely, though.<\/p>\n

Jamestown (CSi)\u00a0 The Jamestown Area Grief Support Team will present “Soup for the Soul” <\/b>on Tuesday, February 11, 2014 at 6:30 p.m. at the Women\u2019s Club Room, 210 3rd<\/sup> Street SW in Jamestown (the back entrance of the Ottmar and Ottmar Building). The subject of the evening\u2019s program is “Supporting Grieving Children”. Special guest speaker, Diane Crowston, is a former Counselor with the Jamestown Public Schools. She will share her expertise and experience working with children who have experienced the death of someone important in their lives.<\/p>\n

Children\u2019s grief is often very misunderstood. In fact, many people don\u2019t realize that children actually do grieve when they have lost someone they love. But anyone who is old enough to love is old enough to grieve.<\/p>\n

A child is often unable to articulate his or her feelings of grief, which may lead the adults in their live to believe that they have not been affected by the death. Changes in the child\u2019s behavior may be misinterpreted as something other than an expression of grief. In addition, children may not feel that they have anyone to talk to about their feelings of grief. They don\u2019t think that anyone can understand how they are feeling because most of their friends and classmates have not experienced the death of someone close to them. This evening will be an opportunity to learn how to support children who have lost a loved one.<\/p>\n

Everyone is welcome to share in this informal evening that includes a meal of soup and sandwiches. The program is free and open to all. Any adult – parents, grandparents, teachers, clergy – who knows a child who has lost a loved one is especially encouraged to attend.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The area has six tracks now that are being used primarily to stage crude oil trains.

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota has expanded veterans’ education program to help more earn college degrees and certifications.
\n\u00a0
\nThe federally funded Veterans Upward Bound program has been replaced by the state-funded Veterans Educational Training.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Project Coordinator Jeri Vaudrin says with state funding, the program has gone from being limited to low-income, first-generation college students to helping almost all veterans who want to attend college.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Vaudrin says only eligibility requirements are that they have served for 180 days or have been deployed if they are in the National Guard.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The state Legislature gave the program $274,000 over the next two years.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The program has hubs at North Dakota State University, the University of North Dakota, Minot State University and the University of Mary.<\/p>\n

WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) – Agencies including the Salvation Army and several Williston-area churches have organized a program for area homeless people who don’t have shelter from this winter’s bitter cold.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It’s dubbed Project Heat, and it involves 10 beds reserved at an area oil patch crew camp.\u00a0 The location isn’t being disclosed.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The effort launched Monday will run through March.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The ice fishing in northeast North Dakota is the best it’s been in two decades. But some anglers can’t make it because trains handling freight and crude from the state’s oil patch are displacing Amtrak passenger service.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The federally funded rail corporation uses BNSF Railway Co. lines and says the “severe freight train interference” is causing long delays along its Chicago-to-Pacific Northwest Empire Builder route.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In North Dakota, Amtrak trains are bypassing Grand Forks, Devils Lake and Rugby. Passengers in those cities are being bused to either Minot or to Fargo to reconnect to westbound or eastbound trains.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 BNSF says in a statement that it has been “disappointed” in its service. The railroad says it’s investing records amounts of cash to expand capacity to help alleviate the problem.<\/p>\n

\u00a0MADISON, Wis. (AP) – Traevon Jackson hit a pull-up jumper with 2.1 seconds left for Wisconsin, 10 seconds after Michigan State’s Adreian Payne tied it with a 3, and the Badgers beat the ninth-ranked Spartans 60-58 on Sunday. The Badgers (19-5, 6-5 Big Ten) committed 14 turnovers, six more than their NCAA-leading 8.3 per game, but gutted out a win over the Spartans (20-4, 9-2). A desperation 3 by Michigan State from midcourt banged off the rim as time expired, and the Wisconsin faithful erupted with applause. The victory snapped a three-game losing skid at home.
